Black Dishwashers

Black dishwashers have moved well beyond the novelty stage in Australian kitchens - they're now a considered design choice that works particularly well in dark or monochrome kitchens paired with black cabinetry, charcoal stone benchtops or matte black tapware. They also hold their own in two-tone layouts where lighter joinery benefits from a grounding element. One practical thing to know: polished black shows fingerprints and water marks more readily than stainless, so if easy maintenance is a priority, a matte or textured black surface is worth looking for specifically. Black is available across multiple brands including Fisher & Paykel, Smeg and Bosch in freestanding and integrated configurations. If you're still deciding on a finish, it's worth comparing across our stainless steel and white dishwasher ranges too.
